"MariaDB AX is a powerful, open source solution for performing custom and complex analytics," said David Thompson, VP of Engineering at MariaDB Corporation. "In order to fully realize the power of big data, our customers need the ability to gather insights in near real time, regardless of where the data is coming from. With MariaDB AX, it's easier than ever to ingest and analyze streaming data from disparate sources, while ensuring the highest level of reliability through new high availability and backup capabilities."
Data warehouses are traditionally expensive and complex to operate. Driven by the need for more meaningful and timely analytics that meet hardware and cost pressures, companies are reassessing their data warehouse and analytics strategy. Built for performance and scalability, MariaDB AX uses a distributed and columnar open source storage engine with parallel query processing that allows customers to store more data and analyze it faster. MariaDB AX supports a wide range of advanced analytic use cases across every industry, for example, identifying health trends to inform healthcare programs and policy, behavioral analysis to inform customer service and sales strategies, and analysis of financial anomalies to inform fraud programs.
MariaDB AX includes new features that enable easy, high performance data analytics, such as:
"Like so many organizations today, for us, data is the lifeblood of our operations," said Patrice Linel, Head of Scientific Computing at Genus plc, parent company of ABS Global and PIC, helping farmers produce better quality meat and milk more efficiently and sustainably. "With the new data ingestion capabilities in MariaDB AX, we are freed from the manual, time-consuming practice of moving massive amounts of genetic data from its source format for analysis. Now with MariaDB AX, we can queue and instantly move data directly from Python into MariaDB where real-time analytics happens. The effort saved is substantial and the data is always the most current."
MariaDB AX is available for download now.
